Default Belt size from autozone?

I have been searching and cant find what I'm looking for.

I called procharger and they gave me a belt code for gates but Napa wont have it for 1 week or so and Autozone doesnt carry Gates belts, they carry Duralast and Gatorback

Does anybobody know the belt code for Duralast or Gatorback 8 rib?
7.25 crank pulley and 4.5 blower pulley 8 rib
Thanks in advance

Are you running the Procharger 8 rib of the SDCE 8 rib since the 7.25 crank pulley is like the SDCE set up. I was using a 25-080530 belt from NAPA when I had a 7.25/4.25 combo with the SDCE kit.

The belt code that procharger gave me for the gates belt is k080408.
But I think that that size is for a 7.65 crank pulley

use a piece of tape and run it around where your belt should go, the length you want. Take it off. Measure it. And thats how long of a belt you need. Go to the auto parts store and request that length belt. Auto Zone probably wouldnt have it, they dont even know how to look up their own phone number.

anybody know what napa size for 7.25/3.90 with SDCE. 25-080525 was too big. Thinking 080520 or 080515?

Thanx

GATES K080408 is GOODYEAR BELT 4080407. If the 4080407 is too long use the next size smaller which is 4080400.

The last three numbers is usually the length without the dot (.). So if one number is too long then get something smaller by 1/2 inch at a time.

Bob at EPP told me to alway go short where you can barely get it on - because it will stretch after breakin.
